You must be stoned to watch the eurovision. Specially with motd on the other side

I used to watch it when Terry Wogan did it because he always took the absolute piss out of everyone, been shit since he left... Graham Norton just isn't funny and quite frankly who gives a shit about the actual performances? no one really watches it for that shit :p it's just a political circle jerk.

I watched the interesting game live, no need to watch it again.

Sometimes its nice to flop about on the sofa watching nonsense, after a day of faffing, especially when you get to listen to all those different languages.

Jesus, I know you can't help it but can you please take 5 minutes to think about things and see if there might be sarcasm involved.

It was presented in English, most of the songs were in English.

The Arsenal game was a belter, 2nd half.

Most worrying is the incresse of a religion with practicaly zero dropouts.
Maybe cultural rather than belief, but our capital city is filling up with a cult that threatens death to people who leave it...what could go wrong.


Nearly 50% are of no religion – but has UK hit ‘peak secular’?

Quick! Ignore the numbers and concentrate on the minority figures that fit my agenda! That never gets old.

The most important take out is that almost no non-religious person ever becomes or goes back to religion, and even in muslim households, 10% are now non-religious. Islam, despite the whole "you can't leave or we'll kill you" thing, is no safer from secularisation than any other skyfairy worship unless we let it happen; the only reason there's growth in muslims is immigration, because you can't secularise the first generation, and because Government policy when we started treating all muslims like dirt 20 minutes after 9/11, which means we've slowed down the secularisation of the second generation, which was progressing quite nicely.

Gone way past minority status in London and growing fast.
As i said, it's probably going to be more family pressure to be religious, if that was the Moonies, we'd have the army in there by now.
These middle Eastern countries that we see as hard core Islamic, most of them were secular and open in the 70s, Iran used to allow hard core pornography, in a matter of decades Islamic rule was pushed onto them, it frightens me that we could basically have an army of belief that could be turned militant from afar.

You clearly don't know what the word "minority" means.

That's because Iran had an American backed Government which didn't actually represent the people, and they fought everything the Government stood for, hence why they went to fundamentalist Islam (although the Iranian people are still quite liberal, see my post ages ago about speaking to an Iranian man.) It also explains why they hate America so much, and rather than trying to realise this and amend ties, the only response as been to be destructive as possible to Iran, bar Obama.

I find it extremely interesting that London is very diverse, yet they seem the most liberal, it appears that the people live in harmony, although if you listen to UKIP and Job you'd think that they have Sharia law.

That's why I wrote status.
Concessions given to minorities has long ceased to relevant given that white native brits are now the minority in London.

Sharia law is rife in the ghettoised communities, in fact anyone who says it isn't the primary law used by muslims when they can get away with it , is fooling themselves.
They are tolerated in plain sight and operate fully behind closed doors, they only use our law when dealing with us.
Is it a problem? Only that it further isolates them , people talk of racial harmony in London, it's a fallacy, everyone has their own patch, entrenched cultures, bigotry and racism, religious hatred...practically zero inter race marriage or real friendships.
Liberals walk down the street and because there isn't actual fighting going on, they conclude everythings hunky dory, the authorities are obviously keen to paint that picture as well so as not to stir up trouble, the reality is a simmering 'Gangs of New York'.
Only time will fix it, and the passing of the older generations, it doesn't help to keep importing fresh bigotry and racism.

A country with a law that says women should cover their hair because Morehamhead?

Peoples views in countries run by authoritarian governments rarely match the stereotypes perpetuated in the west

Met many iranians all of them very chilled out relaxed people, even the muslim ones

As I said, that's the Government, the people are slightly different.

Think about how our Government behaves, do they represent the people all the time?

There's plenty nice, cool people in lots of nasty places with archaic laws but in Iran most still agree with it in principle.

Taken from Wikipedia (unfortunately): "In 2010, 531 young women (aged 15–29) from different cities in nine provinces of Iran participated in a study the results of which showed that 77% prefer stricter covering, 19% loose covering, and 4% don’t believe in veiling at all."

Not very liberal in my eyes.

Im sure 531 hand picked people are very representative of 25 million people in that age group

Does your meeting "many Iranians" qualify anymore than my statement? Is your sample size larger than 531?

Oooh! Was the gorilla costume being used in the context of racially abusing another band member, resulting in an investigation and an admission of guilt and an agreement to settle out of court?

Wow.

Yeah, you still don't know what minority means.

And what special concession does a "white native Brit" need over any other ethnic group born in Britain? Do we get special access to white vans and free copies of the Sun as part of our unique cultural heritage?

Well, that's why a Scottish lad came to England anyway.

It might be because Scotland has some American style degrees, with minors etc.

There is no honours degree for "vanilla teaching" in Scotland, it is a straight up Masters should you wish to go to university to do teaching in Scotland.
